[jira] [Created] (CALCITE-4310) Add API backward compatibility verification

Vladimir Sitnikov created CALCITE-4310:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: Add API backward compatibility verification
                 Key: CALCITE-4310
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-4310
             Project: Calcite
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.25.0
            Reporter: Vladimir Sitnikov


One of the key questions when preparing a release is "what are the breaking changes?", and it would be nice if we could document the changes and minimize them.

Here are the tools that might help:
* japicmp: https://github.com/melix/japicmp-gradle-plugin (integrated with Gradle, enables to configure extra filters so we could exclude {{@API(internal)}} from public apis)
* https://abi-laboratory.pro/java/tracker/ : (no idea how it compares with japicmp)
* Kotlin-specific: https://github.com/Kotlin/binary-compatibility-validator
